Is it possible to create and run a batch file that will run TWEAKUI, and
change DESKTOP location?

Or is there no other way, than me using the mouse curser to do these things.
Thanks.
 
The desktop location (among other things) is determined by the "User Shell
Folders" registry key.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User
Shell Folders]

You can modify this programmatically by way of a .reg file. When you do
things this way you also need to copy or move any files on the desktop as a
separate command.

Also note that the values in this key are the special REG_EXPAND_SZ variety.
To see how these are entered via a .reg file, export the existing ones and
examine the file.


.reg files are imported silently with

regedit /s <regfilename>
